Daughter of Mine

Ten-year-old Vittoria lives in a Sardinian village untouched by tourism. One day she meets the impetuous Angelica, who is completely different from her own caring mother, Tina. Vittoria does not suspect that the two women are connected by a secret. Tina has been visiting Angelica for a long time on the run-down farm where Angelica lives a happy-go-lucky life with some old horses and a faithful dog. Tina is not at all happy about Angelica and her daughter Vittoria getting to know each other. In debt, Angelica decides to move to the mainland. Tina offers her financial support, but she cannot prevent further encounters between the two. Captivated by Angelica, Vittoria begins rediscovering the island with her. As in her directing debut, Vergine giurata, Laura Bispuri once again follows her protagonist as she encounters, imitates, and questions several role models until she gradually discovers who she is.—Berlin International Film Festival
